This is Ricochet. LeftLaneGuy and I rescued her when he stopped on his way out west.

Looks like Ricochet has swirly demon head. Be careful she doesn't eat your soul while your sleeping.

Dogs have no self respect. You'd never catch a cat eating his own shit. I have the same attitude towards dogs as I do towards children, they're great as long as you can hand them off to their keepers when it comes time to deal with shit or excessive noise.

I won't get into the dog v cat thing because I love them both.
A while ago at work some guy was running his mouth about revenge fantasies for some unknowable reason. At one point he said, "If you ever want to really get back at somebody, you poison their dog."
I looked him right in the eye, and in very calm, even tones I explained to him that, "If I ever caught anyone trying to hurt my dog I would murder that motherfucker with a shovel."
He didn't talk to me much after that.

fuckin' people

We have Rusty & Chiquita. My cats do not have owners, they have staff.

So glad you got your cat back.

Cats and dogs both have personalities that are about as diverse as people. I love cats and dogs, just like I love people. I try to appreciate all of them and value their differences . . . . but some of them are just plain dicks.

I used to have a cat that was so friendly and bold that he would just move in with other people. We had a tag on him that said "I HAVE A HOME - PLEASE DON'T LET ME IN" because it got to be such a problem. He absolutely adored my infant son, but died of cancer (just like his equally awesome brother) about two years ago.

I recently adopted a new cat and he is about as awesome of a cat as one could hope for. He tolerates ridiculous amounts of abuse from my 2 year old son, and loves us all very much.

But he does like to attack.

I don't know who said it but there's a saying, "In the eyes of a cat, all things belong to cats." I can see a certain amount of truth to that.

This particular cat is named Car 3.

His predecessors, with one exception, have all looked very much like him. Domestic short hair, black with yellow eyes. That way he matches the house, which is yellow with black trim. All of his predecessors have died violent, ignoble deaths. Most of them vehicular homicide, at least one an from encounter with another animal. In the eight years we've lived here we've had four different cats. That makes the average life expectancy of a working farm cat around 2 years.
Rodent control is the easy part. Avoiding humans seems to be the hard part.

woke up this morning to find one sleeping with my GF, under the blanket. Mixed feelings about lesbian cat porn.

They do have their own personalities, and like people, some are real assholes. Assholes with claws, or furry sluts with daddy issues.

This is in reference to Sisyphus having his cat stolen, and then later recovering it. I was glad to read that part about getting the cat back.

That's what I thought you might be referring to, but I missed that. Went back to look and didn't see where he got the kitty back. I must be blind.

EDIT: went back and looked again. Still don't see it

All's well that ends well.

Glad your pussy is back.

I love cats and some dogs. All my life we had cats, many cats, most of which disappeared after few years of going out. My mom has a cat for about 15 years now, she is the most paranoid cat I ever seen and it's the only reason she's still around. Mine is 5 (or 6?) and he is not afraid of anything, once I found him in the neighbors yard (fell/jumped out of 2nd floor window!) and when I found him he was making friends with the large dog next door (he plays with dogs and hates most cats) Another time he got away I went outside to find him just sitting in the middle of the road with cars swerving to avoid him, that's why he doesn't go out any more. When he was younger I trained him to fetch, he still does it sometimes, but not so much anymore. Also he had this fascination with shiny things, like a ferret he would steal everything from jewelery to a nail clipper, occasionally he would swipe a pen or pencil, it all ended up near his food plate, once we moved he stopped doing it. I remember him trying to take my sisters necklace once, he was coming over all cuddly like and then gently try to pull it off her neck again and again.
